General

The following terms apply to all courses:

If you fail for whatever reason to start or complete your course(s), you must still pay to To Baby and Beyond the full fee for your course(s). There shall be no refund or discount of fees following the start of the course. Because of the way our courses are structured, once your booking is confirmed we are unable to transfer you to another course, or to offer any refunds. As you can appreciate, this could result in our running a course with insufficient numbers. However, we may be prepared to offer you a discount on the next available course, taking into account the lessons already taken by you.
Courses occasionally have to be cancelled because we’ve had too few bookings. We do all that we can to avoid this, but it’s not possible to run a course if only a few people have applied. If the number of bookings is too low, we’ll wait for some time after the usual closing date before cancelling the course, in case people book late. This will mean that confirmation emails won't be sent out a month before the course as is our usual practice. You will, of course, be informed as soon as possible if the course is cancelled. A rescheduled date will be offered. If you notify To Baby and Beyond within seven days of being advised of a re-scheduled date that such date is unacceptable and if no other date can be agreed, then you will be entitled to a refund of the course fees paid, but not otherwise.
To Baby and Beyond cannot be held responsible for travel or accommodation costs, so please do not pay for travel arrangements before you have received your confirmation email that the course is definitely going ahead (or, alternatively, ring the To Baby and Beyond office on 01273 702496 to confirm that a course is going ahead). Please note that the confirmation email is not the same email which you will receive acknowledging your booking.
Course fees include tuition, course materials (handbook and/or resource files) and certification fees, where applicable. Liquid refreshments at break times are also included. All other costs such as travel and accommodation where needed etc are payable by you.
The course materials that To Baby and Beyond provide to you shall become your property when paid for in full. The content of the course materials, including copyright and all other intellectual property rights in them, remain the property of To Baby and Beyond. You may not reproduce any part of the course materials without the prior written consent of To Baby and Beyond.
It is your responsibility to ensure that the course is suitable for your requirements. To Baby and Beyond is happy to offer advice but accepts no liability in the event that the content of the course does not meet your requirements.
To Baby and Beyond reserves the right to alter the advertised course venue and trainers.
To Baby and Beyond reserves the right to decline applications.

The course content has been carefully researched and is believed by To Baby and Beyond to be up-to-date. However, To Baby and Beyond does not promise that recent developments will be reflected in the course content.
Certificates are not issued until all payments are made in full.
Where you are not a consumer and save to the extent that we may not limit or exclude our liability by law, we shall not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, for any loss of profit, or any indirect or consequential loss arising under or in connection with any contract between us; and our total liability to you for all other losses arising under or in connection with any contract between us, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall be limited to the total sums paid by you for our goods and services.
